The governor of Chubut, Ignacio Torres, attended the meeting of the governors of Together for Change with the Minister of the Interior and the Chief of Staff. «I think that all of us who were here today are here to support the law.«Torres commented on the meeting between the bloc to which he belongs and the ruling party.
On Thursday, April 4, the 10 governors of Together for Change held a meeting with Guillermo FrancosMinister of the Interior, and Nicolas Posse, chief of staff. This meeting marked a new opportunity in which the National Government attempted to establish communication channels with the governors to ensure their cooperation in Javier Milei’s government plan.
The bloc’s governors had already shown a willingness to collaborate, but with the various changes to the Base Law, the ruling party took the opportunity to confirm the party’s support.
The governor of Chubut had had a strong disagreement with the National Government, but now he seems willing to collaborate. In an interview with La Nación+, Torres noted: «It was a work meeting in which many of us felt that we were heard. Beyond the specific topic that is the Base Law, we talk about many other issues.
One of the governor’s concerns regarding the main topic of the meeting, support for the Base Law, is the return of the Income Tax. Torres issued a warning: «I believe that if you go back to a floor of 1,200,000 you have no chance of getting out, But I speak this in a personal capacity. “It is a very violent impact for the workers.”.
Frigerio, between collaboration and criticism
Another of those attending the meeting was Rogelio Frigeriogovernor of Between rivers. Frigerio, like his blockmates, expressed support for Milei’s plan, but behind him, he allowed some of his officials to criticize the national government.
«The increases are the product of draconian decisions made at the national levell», «The policy of eliminating energy subsidies, in Entre Ríos in particular, represents an increase of 123% on average«were some of the sayings of Marcelo López, a deputy belonging to Frigerio’s party.
